Citizen Corps

Citizen Corps is a series of volunteer
based programs which will help
people across America take a more
active role in crime prevention,
emergency medical support, and be
better trained in a wide range of
emergency preparedness and disaster
response activities.

Citizen Corps
offers the means for citizens to help
make our communities safer, stronger,
and better prepared.
We all have a role to play in keeping
our community safe and secure.
Citizen Corps provides opportunities
for volunteers to prepare and train in
and with their community. Individuals
must be prepared to help themselves
and others in an emergency.
